In this case, I'd rather them all blend in like lemmings.I like the one Blue plug wire. Shows diversity amongst the Red co-inhabitants of the bay

Oops.
Still the best looking intake...when clean/painted/polished!Oops.
Yeahhhhh. Unfortunately I won't be getting the cam anytime soon because of thisStill the best looking intake...when clean/painted/polished!
What, All you guys are like lemmings.In this case, I'd rather them all blend in like lemmings.
It would appear as if USPS has lost my coupling that attaches the MAF to my CAI. Tracking says delivery on the 21st, but also says that it hasn't left the facility in California. USPS FTW!

Isn't it a mustang?
Doesn't it have a 5.0?
Isn't this a thread about:
Heads,
Intake,
And a cam?
Oh look,.....cliff
Ah yes. Apologies.Ok... This was more than a week ago. No info about it since?
What size is it? 80mm, 90mm?
Ah yes. Apologies.
It did show up last Saturday, finally. Tried installing everything but ran into the issue of the throttle linkage hitting the heater tube. I tried making a phenolic spacer friday out of 3/4" plywood but will suffice to say that it didnt work. So I bought the intake this weekend and will install everything as I can with the use of 1.5 hands.
The stock intake. I deleted the EGR spacer which caused the clearance issue. So the logical fix was put in the spacer to make it work, but none were to be had.A spacer for what?
I did that, out of heavy gauge metal even. And as soon as I finished, I realized I fabbed the CAI to work without the spacer in. It's such a tight fit around the strut tower that the extra 1.5" that the spacer adds wouldn't allow room for the intake.Ahhh... Why not just run a block off plate on the spacer?
Much easier to fab one out of wood or plastic while you wait for a billet piece to arrive?

Yeahhhh... In hindsight, I see what I should have done, but I had no way of knowing I was going to have clearance issues after the fact. Nor did I remember reading about anyone having clearance issues after deleting the EGR spacer.Aha...
Start painting FROM the door, all the way back to that corner there.
At this point, I might put the spacer back in and cut/weld a relief into what... the 4 inch inlet that you've made.

Yep. Im just going to make one. $40 is ridiculous, so I will make one. And then I'll realize why it's easier to buy one that is guaranteed to work, and then buy one. Rinse, repeat.Eh... Yeah, there are EGR delete spacers out there to be purchased. The linkage is why.
